Specificatii
Gershon Baskin's memoir of thirty-eight years of intensive pursuit
of peace begins with a childhood on Long Island and a bar mitzvah
trip to Israel with his family. Baskin joined Young Judaea back in
the States, then later lived on a kibbutz in Israel, where he
announced to his parents that he had decided to make aliya,
emigrate to Israel. They persuaded him to return to study at NYU,
after which he finally emigrated under the auspices of Interns for
Peace. In Israel he spent a pivotal two years living with Arabs in
the village of Kufr Qara. Despite the atmosphere of fear, Baskin
found he could talk with both Jews and Palestinians, and that very
few others were engaged in efforts at mutual understanding. At his
initiative, the Ministry of Education and the office of right-wing
prime minister Menachem Begin created the Institute for Education
for Jewish-Arab Coexistence with Baskin himself as director. Eight
years later he founded and codirected the only joint
Israeli-Palestinian public policy think-and-do tank in the world,
the Israel/Palestine Center for Research and Information. For
decades he continued to cross borders, often with a kaffiyeh (Arab
headdress) on his dashboard to protect his car in Palestinian
neighborhoods. Airport passport control became Kafkaesque as
Israeli agents routinely identified him as a security threat.
During the many cycles of peace negotiations, Baskin has served
both as an outside agitator for peace and as an advisor on the
inside of secret talks--for example, during the prime ministership
of Yitzhak Rabin and during the initiative led by Secretary of
State John Kerry. Baskin ends the book with his own proposal, which
includes establishing a peace education program and cabinet-level
Ministries of Peace in both countries, in order to foster a culture
of peace.
